Chapter 4: Plan an event

Schedule an event ahead

Plan an event for a future date with Schedule Event, find it under Upcoming Events, and start it on the day. RaceLyx reminds you when one is due today.

We are recording this one now. It will play right here when it is ready.

You can set an event up days ahead. Give it a future date and Event Setup saves it as scheduled instead of starting it. On the day, RaceLyx asks if you want to start it.

Before you start

  • Classes set up.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Start a new event

    Everything is the same as a normal event until the date.

  2. 2

    Pick a future date

    Start Time and End Time are used on the agenda and the public page.

  3. 3

    Finish the steps

    You can come back and change any of it before the day.

  4. 4

    Schedule Event

    The event is saved and you land on Events, where it is listed under Upcoming Events.

  5. 5

    Find it under Upcoming

    Start makes it the active event. The bin deletes a scheduled event you no longer need.

Tips

  • When an event is scheduled for today, RaceLyx shows "Event Scheduled Today" with a Start button.
  • Scheduled events publish to your public page so drivers can see what is coming up.
  • New Event offers Start from Template? if you have saved templates.

Troubleshooting

A warning says another event is on that date.
That is just a heads-up. Two events on one day is allowed.
